Summary
We are told that Jesus "had to go" through Samaria, where he stops at a well and begins a surprising conversation with a Samaritan woman, crossing cultural, ethnic, and social boundaries. Asking her for a drink, he offers her “living water” that satisfies the deepest thirst of the soul and leads to eternal life. We see that Jesus actively seeks those who are the last, the lost, and the least in the world's eyes but who matter deeply in his. Looking for a previous devo? Want to share one with a friend?

Where are you tempted to satisfy your thirst from wells that are spiritually dry? - How is the Jesus we see here similar to and different from the Jesus you used to imagine? - Prayer: Jesus, satisfy my thirst with this living water that only you can give!
